Goal setting is truly beneficial with stamina and honest self-reflection!

Goal Setting Session

What a great day!  It was full of fun-filled energy from students and well maybe a bit from Mrs. B! I might of told a story or 2. 

I am so proud of the students as almost everyone completed their 2 EE self-reflection videos over the last 2 days.  It was so rewarding to see students honestly acknowledge their successes/areas needing improvement. We also continued to work on academic goal setting which is a vital component of personal academic responsibility.  These goals will be shared at the November 3 Way Conference.

Writing

I had personal conferences will students on their Initial Writing Assessment.  We discussed strengths, areas to improve upon and what needed to be done for future success in the 6 traits of writing.  As always, RUBRIC is your BFF!

 
 
 

Mathletics

All students should be doing this program 2 - 3 times per week at home to elevate skill level.  This is a provincial initiative used to enhance MATH programs which our school is whole-heartedly supporting so please make use of it at home.
 
 
Some students have overdue AR reading goals.  Please remember this is a team effort so all need to do their part!
